“I had an amazing experience visiting the Chungchun Rice Dog Vaughan location right close to Vaughan Mills! The stuff they make here is so good—every single rice dog is freshly made to order and completely delicious. The staff are very friendly, polite, and provide excellent service. I highly recommend stopping by if you want a great treat!“

“great food and cocktails- love the sangria! cozy ambience!“

“Loved it! Huge portions, fast and friendly service. 100% would recommend!“

“Great food, service, and atmosphere.“

“I didnt think I would be, but i was impressed with this fried chicken spot. Really tasty crispy fried chicken. We got the soy garlic flavour - so good. We also got the rose tteokbokki and omg the rice cake was so soft and chewy and had an amazing slightly spicy kick to it. Super yummy.“

“Mom’s Bite serves an amazing burger—the patty was big, juicy, and full of flavor. The fries were extra crispy and perfectly cooked, making the meal even better. Great food, generous portions, and I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Honestly wasn’t expecting much when coming in. They seated us in the section that had majority tablets; Genius idea. The service was fast and efficient. Everything you need is right there at the table or can be answered by the tablet. The table has compartments where you can find utensils, napkins, etc. The food was reasonably priced, generous portions, and tasted good. If there’s anything you need you can look to the tablet to help you. There’s an option to call a server and has options for your inquiry.

TLDR; Pros: fast&efficient, food good&cheap Cons: impersonal/detached style of dinning exp

Overall would recommend; I believe in this place.“

“It may be one of the hottest days of the year but, we came in craving some comfort food and this perfectly hit that itch. The chicken was extremely juicey, the skin crisp, meat tender and quite flavorful, also I was impressed by the size of each peice and how they butchered it. We were given a small platter of buttered corn on the house and it was a nice starter to preset the meal. The music hits the vibe of a relaxing casual eatery and the combos are worth the money. Next time I would order the combo with a larger group to finish it we went for combo 2 and got the galbi and soy garlic chicken. The galbi was my favorite my partner preferred the soy garlic, the tteokbokki was a little smokey, little spicey, and was loaded with meat it was worth it. I will come back and this will be a another great night spot after some drinks and karaoke.“

“Nak Won has been a longstanding restaurant in the Richmond Hill area, conveniently located near Hillcrest Mall. I've been coming here more frequently lately because it's quickly become one of my go-to spots. Over the past few months, I've visited at least five times.

The service has consistently been friendly and efficient. The staff are also incredibly thoughtful (they've even offered to take family photos for us after noticing we were trying to squeeze everyone into a selfie). I also appreciate their online ordering system, which makes dining much more convenient. You can easily request small things like napkins or water/tea without having to flag someone down.

Every dish I've tried so far has been delicious, and I'd happily order any of them again. The portions are also quite generous, making most dishes perfect for sharing.

Some of my favourites include:
* Gamjatang (Pork Bone Soup)
* Gamjatang Ramyun
* RC8 Cheese Katsu Dolsot
* KD6 HaeMul Pajeon (Seafood Pancake)
* KD12 Rabokki
* KD13 Bulgogi Tteokbokki
* Rose Jjampong (both the beef and seafood versions are fantastic!)
* AP10 LA Kalbi (delicious, though the portion is on the smaller side)

And finally, I love that they serve purple rice; it's a small touch that makes the meal feel even more special! I highly recommend.“

“My aunt & I came from Texas for BTS and I was craving Korean food and found this place near our Airbnb.

The food was delicious especially the spicy bean sprout soup we get in the beginning. (Something I will def miss going back to Tx)

Our server was so sweet and attentive. I def recommend this place and they’re open late as well.“

“While we were in the area having dinner, we decided to pick up something for lunch the following day and ended up deciding on gimbap. After trying the food, we instantly had regrets that we didn't come here for dinner the night before! Really fresh and well made, at a price point that's very reasonable for the portion sizing. We'll definitely be back for a sit-down meal soon, and have added this restaurant to the list of places we'd pick up a tray from for parties.“

“That fried chicken sandwich is currently sitting as my #1 in Toronto, and I've eaten a lot. The fillings, the sauce, the bread, all so good. If you're in the area and you need a lunch, call ahead for a sandwich, will not regret. It is also massive! Their fried chicken is really crispy. It's on my top 5 list for crispiest chicken in the city. Chicken is fresh, oil is fresh. I like that they don't put the sauce on your chicken, that way it won't get soggy on your way home and when you reheat, the sauce won't burn. Their spicy yangnyeom was good, but not the best in town. Their soy garlic was only ok, a bit too runny. Their radishes were also only ok. Their kimchi fries were good, but Banh Mi Boys ironically does that better. But without a doubt, I'm going back for that fried chicken sandwich.
This place is takeout only.“

“Best Korean restaurant I have ever had. The only place I know that has beef rib stew. Friendly service and even better food. Will be coming here very often.“

“is amazing, and the side dishes are fresh. My favorites were the chicken katsu, beef short ribs, sizzling corn cheese, and pork bone soup! The atmosphere and interior perfectly capture the vibe of Korea, and the servers are really sweet!

I’ll definitely visit again!“

“First time ordering from The Fry on Uber, love it! First of all, the package is really lovely (feels like a gift given by a friend), and the fried chicken is soooooo gooooood✨🤤 Very tasty, and great amount for a friendly price~~~ Thank youuuu✨“

“Delicious juicy chicken great taste best chicken on Eglinton 10/10“

“It’s yummy, good service, clean and place is better than old place“

“Great good with great value“

“Came here and ordered the gamja tang because everyone was raving about it and they weren't wrong. Probably ranked in the top 3 gamja tang i've have. The meat literally falls off the bones. The bones also break apart fairly easily which not alot of places cook it to that point. The broth wasnt that spicy. The banchan were really good too. I noticed that because I went myself, i didnt get all the varieties compared to bigger groups but thats okay.

Ive read people complain about the servers but I can only speak to my experience. When I was there, all the servers were really nice and tentative. They even came by a few times to check on me and asked if I wanted refills of the banchan. I have no complaints and had a wonderful experience. This place doesnt do cash discounts so I paid with card. My meal came out to be about $23 and this was with tax and 15% included. Id definitely come back and try the other items on the menu.“

“Good taste with good service.“

“It’s better then KFC Cheese stick OMG🤤best I’ve ever had The spicy 🌶️ pastas ou 😋 So I give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The first time I tried this authentic Korean restaurant in GTA, and it was great. The mapo style beef was especially good, really spicy but absolutely delicious. The spicy fried chicken is a must order dish. I also loved their kimchi so much. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my visit.“

“Cute Korean restaurant about 3-5 min walk from Finch Subway station. Tip: exit through the passenger pickup area of Finch station if you're walking, that's the closest exit to the restaurant. I came here specifically to try their Ganjang Gejang (raw blue crab marinated in soy sauce), it seems that they might be the only restaurant that serves this dish in Toronto, that I could find and know of. There is a very slight fishy smell when I sniffed it, which is expected since it's raw crab, but when I was eating it, I didn't find it fishy at all, it was really delicious. The crab roe was soft and rich, the meat was smooth and fresh, everything went really well with the rice. I can see why this dish is called a rice thief now. I was really tempted to order another bowl of rice but on account of my diet I stopped myself. I would definitely try this dish again. I also ordered the kimchi stew and my friend got a spicy beef soup. Although it was not as outstanding as the Ganjang Gejang, Both were delicious and portions were good. The side dishes were good as well. Not sure if there's free refills or not since we didn't ask for any. The service was good, it's a smaller shop, seems like it's family owned. People were doing multi jobs so if you wanted more tea or something you have to ask them, they do really try to check up you though and would walk around once in awhile to refill your tea and see how you're doing. Overall a good dining experience, I would come back to try their raw crab. However if I was just going out for Korean food then I may not specifically go out of my way to come here since although the other dishes were good, it's not super outstanding. Aside from indoor dining they also have outdoor dining, there's a big white tent outside, they provides pretty good shelter, there's also hanging lights out there, really cute set up. We dined inside though since it was windy.“

“This restaurant is definitely a hidden gem! We came across it randomly. The food was delicious and the hostess was very warm and friendly. There were a lot of options on the menu for such a small place. There are only a few tables but they kindly arranged a table for our group of 9. We will definitely return!“

“This hotel food quality is very good“

“Great food, I've tried almost everything and I can confidently say that all of them are delicious. I am also a spicy food lover, I go for the level 2 spice, 3 is my max and 4 is impossible 😅 so really great stuff. 👍“

“I cant peak enough about the food at this place. it's by far the best value for your money. Not only is the food delicious but the portions are very reasonable for the $ they ask. I highly recommend the chicken sandwich.. you'll never go anywhere else for chicken again. Their Kim Bap is really good option. Very fresh and very healthy, my wife lives off them!!“

“Famous charcoal outdoor Korean bbq. Best Korean frozen Soju place in the city.“

“First time here and found a right place for authentic Korean bbq with my favourite kimchi stew so yummy ! Will surely come back again even needed to queue... 😋😋😋“

“Such a wonderful place to eat. Self cooking Korean restaurant with amazing tasting food for $20 for our chicken dish. Unlimited soup and sides and very fresh chicken. Would highly recommend. Service was very good and I felt that I was looked after. Thanks Daldongnae!“

“If you’ve seen all the other reviews then this one is no different
You come for the crab and you stay for the crab
Well marinated decently sized portion at fair cost
The sides are all done well
Kimchi feels like it’s made in house . Flavour not overpowering“

“I came here during Korealicious to try traditional Korean soy-marinated crab and shrimp.

The complimentary side dishes were great. My favorites were the sweet soy-braised tofu skin, japchae, and spicy cucumber salad. The hot barley tea also paired really well with the marinated seafood.

Marinated Crab 🦀

The platter comes with six half pieces of soy-marinated crab and six half pieces of spicy marinated crab.

The soy-marinated crab tasted very traditional, with a strong sweet soy sauce flavor. Compared with another Michelin pop-up restaurant I tried before, this version was much richer and saltier. The blue crab meat had a soft, jelly-like texture from the curing process, which was impressive. However, the soy sauce became quite dominant after a few pieces, so I highly recommend pairing it with the beef tendon soup or barley tea to balance the flavors.

The spicy crab, however, wasn’t my favorite. Instead of the sweet, savory heat that I usually associate with Korean gochujang, it leaned more toward the direct heat of Korean chili flakes, similar to the spice level in tteokbokki. I felt the spiciness overwhelmed the natural sweetness of the crab rather than enhancing it.

Marinated Shrimp 🦐

I was worried that eight shrimp wouldn’t be enough, but the plate was huge. They use giant tiger prawns, each about the size of my hand, so two or three are already quite filling.

Because the prawns are so large, they are only lightly cured, so the meat stays firm and springy instead of becoming soft like the Cantonese-style marinated shrimp I’m more familiar with. The sweet soy marinade penetrates the meat very well, making every bite flavorful. However, after a few shrimp, the soy sauce becomes increasingly dominant and the flavor starts to feel one-dimensional. Personally, I prefer the layered flavors of Cantonese-style marinated seafood, where the freshness of the seafood is complemented by ginger, garlic, cooking wine, and fish sauce.

Beef Tendon Soup 🥣

This ended up being my favorite dish of the meal.

The broth was rich with beef flavor and had a wonderful silky texture from the collagen released by the tendon. It paired perfectly with the marinated seafood. A sip of the soup cleansed the palate from the strong soy sauce, making the next bite of crab or shrimp taste fresh again. The tendon itself was tender and well-cooked. The only thing I didn’t enjoy was the mustard soy dipping sauce served on the side.

Overall, this meal felt more like experiencing two very different marinated seafood traditions. Korean-style marinated seafood emphasizes the deep savory flavor developed through soy sauce curing, while Cantonese-style marinated seafood highlights the natural sweetness of the seafood with layers of ginger, garlic, cooking wine, and fresh aromatics. Even though I personally still prefer the Cantonese style, I enjoyed experiencing this traditional Korean approach.“

“Really the most wonderful, unexpected, and personable experience. The staff go above and beyond in every way you can think of. Absolutely the kindest!!! Jay was my server and he was 150% all around. I'll be bringing my daughter and her boyfriend back here for a nice Friday night outing. The fried chicken is a Fried Chicken Lovers dream come true. So many other things on the menu.“

“The best Korean chicken !! Great service and yummy food !!“

“Jjampong is the best in Toronto.“

“아줌마들 셋이 오늘 낮에 빙수생각이 나서 쑥스러움을 무릅쓰고 들어갔어요~~ 인절미 팥빙수~~ 거친 팥고물에 달지도 않고 너무 맛있어서 계속 감탄하며 먹었네요~~ 서빙하는 언냐들도 이쁘고 대박 친절했어요~~~ 기분좋은 하루 였어요~~~“

“This is a restaurant I make a point to visit every time I’m in North York. Today, we ordered the spicy fried pollock, sweet and sour pork, and braised monkfish—and as expected, it didn’t disappoint.

We didn’t get it this time, but we usually also order the clam kalguksu when we’re here. That said, today’s dishes were more than enough on their own. We love Chowon so much ❤️“

“I received stone rice cake (3 types) from a friend today. I found out why I asked what time the pickup would be when I placed my order. The rice cake was warm and delicious, as if it had been made and delivered on time. They beautifully engraved the words 'First Birthday' on the rice cake cake for free, and there were plenty of songpyeon and sorghum red bean rice cakes. I was moved. thank you The price was also better than other places. I highly recommend it?“

“Love it!

From the beginning, everything went well.

It is a real Japanese place. It is not a franchise, so the food is 12 out of 10.

The waitress and the chef were incredible.

Coming back soon.“

“A must try for any fried chicken lover!! ????????Korean fried chicken we can’t stop eating. About 30$ for two people to stuff themselves with perfectly crisp chicken, smothered in an amazing sauce if you choose and several flavors. Friendly caring service. Don’t miss it in the food court just down a corridor a few feet off main food court. Hidden gem we always return to.“

“The quality was unbelievable considering it was a restaurant inside a supermarket. I ordered takeout because I was afraid there would be leftovers, but the packaging wasn't made of Styrofoam, so I just took it home and ate it. There are still a lot of Styrofoam containers, but the packaging was really good. The Jjamppong was just as delicious as it was at a specialty Chinese restaurant. Bibimbap is ordinary. The batter for sweet and sour pork is too hard. It looks perfect in the picture, but when you bite into it, it's so hard that the roof of your mouth cracks, and even when you open it after eating some seaweed from takeout, it's still hard. The sweet and sour pork sauce is very disappointing. I think it would be even better if you paid a little more attention to it. So, even though I used glutinous rice, the batter was not chewy and was rough. It seems like I mixed in too much glutinous rice rather than starch. Anyway, the meat was tender. If the sauce is good, it would be really great.“
